Question

Given below are two statements:
Statement I: AC generators carry slip rings while DC generators require a commutator
Statement II: Voltage generated in any DC generator is alternating and only becomes DC after it has been rectified by the commutator.
In light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below

• A. Both Statement I and Statement II are correct
• B. Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect
• C. Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect
• D. Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct

Hint:

A commutator acts as a mechanical rectifier. Without it, every generator would inherently produce AC at its output terminals because electromagnetic induction naturally generates alternating voltage.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A
